No prettier church wedding was! ever witnessed in Perry than that! solemnized Wednesday evening, April 24th, at the Baptist church. When the appointed hour arriv ed, every seat in the church was occupied—several hundred eager, expectant friends of the bride and groom. • At 8:30 o’clock, the organ; un der the artistic touch of Mrs. L. M. Paul, pealed forth the solemn ly beautiful strains of the Men- delsshon Wedding March, and the ushers followed by the attendants marched down the center aisle and arranged themselves in a semicircle on the pulpit platform, facing the congregation. Then came the maid of honor, followed by the bride down center aisle with her brother, Mr. J. Powers Cooper. Through the Bap tistery door came the groom, with his brother, Mr. Henry J. Little, of Sparta, meeting in front of the preacher, who stood within the semicircle of attendants. Then Rev. C. A. Turner, of Macon, ut tered the solemn and impressive words of a Christian marriage cer emony and, by authority of God and man, pronounced man and wife, Dr. William J. Little' and Miss Mary Josephine Cooper. • Again the organ pealed forth; the twain now, made one, march ed out with their attendants. The church wa3 very tastefully decorated.
